Default Planting directly into mini bark


"rich1234" wrote in message

Hi, I have recently planted serveral dozen bedding plants directly into
about 3 inches of mini bark chips! The base of the roots are in
contact with the soil (as I have cut holes in the sheet of weed block)
but the rest of the root/pot compost is surrounded by the bark. Will
this be ok? Or can I expect problems? Many thanks, Richard

The rootball might dry out if only surrounded by bark. Keep an eye on the
plants in case
